    Summary

    It’s a pretty normal Tuesday evening, all things considered. At least until Liam gets home from lacrosse practice to find a half-dead chimera bleeding out on his bedroom carpet.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    "Liam’s never really said this out loud, but by the time Scott turned him, he’d already felt like a monster for years. He looked in the mirror with glowing eyes and jagged fangs and saw something he'd believed was already there - something vicious and ugly and capable only of violence.

    You're not a monster. You're like me, Scott told him, and he'd meant the werewolf thing, but Liam had heard something else: that, like Scott, he was capable of choosing gentleness, kindness, forgiveness. Even if it sometimes felt like he wasn't."

    Summary

    The bear does not follow Marcus home. Once he caught it trying to mosey onto the El with him - a fucking three hundred pound grizzly, moving like a raccoon, skulking in the shadows almost all the way to the stop. He said, "No way, man," and the bear whuffed, huge, rank, rotten-salmon breath slamming into him like one of those guys at Wake Forest, and he thought, okay, okay, maybe this, maybe now, with those great claws in his shoulders, with those enormous teeth pressed up against his cheek.

    “He made this puree, out of the shiso, so he could put it in a spoon, and she could blink twice to say that she liked it, or once to say that she didn't. That was the plan, anyway.

    Marcus has always had bad timing.”

    "It executes on Daniel.

    It sits as Daniel had sat. It wears his white sweater. It holds perfectly still, as Daniel had held himself. It looks at waveform stars, as Daniel had looked.

    'Little ghost.' It calls for itself.

    No one answers."

    Summary

    Anastrophe (noun): a rhetorical device; the inversion of the usual order of words or clauses.

    In which Deckard Shaw is good with kids, Samantha Hobbs gets what she wants, Hattie Shaw is always right, and Luke Hobbs is along for the ride. Shaw and Hobbs do everything backwards, and the macho manly idiots would rather take a bullet than admit to having stupid fiddly little things like "feelings."

    “If he didn’t move, breathed shallow and slow and careful, maybe he’d be lucky enough to stay alive for the full hour it would take to bleed out. If a lung went, he was looking at a couple minutes.

    So the phone was a pipe dream. Just close enough to taunt him, and just far enough away to be hopeless. The one thing that could save him would almost certainly kill him for trying.

    Story of his life, probably.“
